EDUCATOR PLACEMENT

We help qualified educators of color join private school faculties across Los Angeles and provide ongoing support and professional development.

Enriching Diversity and Representation in Private School Faculties

Beyond facilitating educational access for students of color, Axis also supports the diversification of independent school faculties. It is imperative that students see themselves reflected in the adults in their learning environments, and all students benefit from teachers with diverse backgrounds. Our Educator Placement Program assists qualified educators of color in exploring, applying to, and transitioning into a school that aligns with their educational philosophy and professional goals.
